Chapter 822

Over an hour later, Everett strolled into the clinic. Dr. Stone glanced at the distinguished man in front of him and had a pretty good guess about who he was.

Sure enough, once Everett settled in, he got straight to the point. "I'm Selena's partner." Everett, the wealthiest man in Newport.

Dr. Stone greeted him with respect, "Mr. Everett, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Everett casually tossed a report onto the desk, his long fingers drumming a steady beat on the surface. "I want to know exactly what's going on with Selena and how we can fix it."

Dr. Stone sighed internally. Ms. Selena was quite the catch...

Before she could finish, Everett gave a subtle nod to Alex, who was standing beside him.

Alex immediately handed over a check for five million dollars.

Dr. Stone accepted it with a knowing smile, quickly pulling out and printing all the medical records, passing them to Everett. This included everything Selena had shared during her sessions.
